MULCAHY AND ZITO LEAD GUPPIES TO VICTORY


11/15/02- Friday night the Killingworth Guppies swam circles around the Wrecking Crew, beating them 9-1. It was the forth straight victory for the Guppies since they moved up to the Zrink B League. Swimming to the front of the school was the line combination of Mulcahy and Zito. Brian Mulcahy(3-3-6) started the scoring early as he fired a shot into the Wrecking Crew's net off of a great play from Jason Zito(3-4-7) and Robert Murphy(1-3-4). It would be the start to a very busy night for Brian and his line mate Jason Zito. "Zito and Fong (Mulcahy) were on fire tonight, they were unstoppable" stated Guppies net minder Joe Linskey. He also added "Kelly sucks!!!". Zito and Mulcahy exchange goals throughout the period when Guppies Assistant Captain John Carroll(1-0-1) joined the party, scoring his first of the season with a rocket from the point. Later in the second half Marc Crayton(1-1-2) would his second goal of the season off of a nice pass from Zito. Murphy would round out the guppies scoring when he finished off a pass from Mulcahy and Zito. For the second game in a row the Guppies defense had a quiet night but were as effective as always. Joe Linskey stop 12 of the Wrecking Crew's 13 shots dropping his GAA (goals against average) to an impressive 2.75. The Guppies face off next Friday against the Road Dogs who lost this week to the Quicksilver. The Guppies and the Road Dogs were the only undeafeated teams left heading into this weekend but with the Dogs loss, the Gups stand alone. Look for a Strong and Fired up Road Dogs team trying to end the Guppies current Winning streak (16-0-0) this Friday, November 22, 2002. Game time is 8pm, plenty of good seats still available.
